Welcome to Hands of Culture
Empowering the world through ASL, culture, and community— by the Deaf, for everyone.
Hands of Culture is a Deaf-owned, Deaf-led space dedicated to
American Sign Language, Deaf identity, and community connection.
Whether you're learning ASL for the first time, teaching your child their first signs, deepening your understanding of Deaf culture — or already fluent and looking to stay connected — you're in the right place.
We welcome everyone: Deaf, hearing, CODAs, interpreters, families, educators, and anyone curious about the beauty of visual language and culture.
Explore engaging lessons, expressive and receptive signing practice, Deaf history resources, and more.
Let your hands tell your story.
Our Mission
At Hands of Culture, we are rooted in Deaf leadership and lived experience, committed to promoting language access, cultural awareness, and authentic representation through American Sign Language.
Our mission is to empower individuals and communities by providing accessible ASL education, celebrating Deaf identity, and fostering meaningful connections across cultures, languages, and experiences.
We believe that communication is a human right — and through visual language, we build bridges, amplify voices, and create spaces where everyone belongs.
